Guimaras
Camp Jossman Headquarters is located in Supang, Buenavista, Guimaras. In 1901 to 1912, Barangay Supang was under the captivity of the Americans under the leadership of Gen. Douglas MacArthur. They needed a reservation camp, and so they established Camp Jossman. A regiment of American soldiers and two batallions of the Philippine Scouts took refuge in this facility while constructing the Sto. Niño wharf. There are many recreation centers that were established in this place. However, in 1912, an order from the US high command arrived to vacate Camp Jossman and return to the US. All the structures then that were established were all demolished. Today, Camp Jossman Headquarters is used as a water reservoir by Water District of Buenavista. Source: guimaras.gov.ph

Candijay
Candijay, Bohol Can-umantad Falls is the most beautiful falls that I have ever seen in Bohol. It looks so majestic! From far off, you will see the falls as one high drop but upon closer look, the falls is in fact in three layers although the 3rd layer is further off and shorter. The area where the falls is situated is open and can be clearly seen even at a distance. Trees and shrubs at the top and at the side of the falls give a green backdrop to the falls. The ravine looks like a one solid rock with shrubs clinging to dear life at cracks and crags. The upper falls is 45 meters high (as per local guides), wide and with thick cascading waters. The water drops over a very deep ravine, flows a bit further and then falls a second time over a cliff. Climbing up to the upper fall will pose problems for amateurs.Rock climbers can scale the cliff easily enough with the use of ropes and hooks but they have to traverse the pool at the bottom of the upper fall. The second falls is two to three times wider yet by far shorter in length in comparison to the upper falls. The flow of water looks thinner compared to the upper falls for the reason that the water from above flows out and is distributed towards a wider area. Basins are formed below both falls; carved out from solid rock forming natural swimming pools that is very deep near the falls and shallower at the rim. The upper falls being quite inaccessible, adventurers have to content themselves with the lower pool. The second drop is partly accessible at one side for the solid stone ground slopes gradually towards the stream where the pool overflows. You can slowly walk up the watery slope to sit at the point where the ground starts to slope down from the steep cliff above it, right at the very side of the falls. One can also climb up at the other side, up to where small trees and shrubs are standing. Up close, the falls look so huge and beautiful; a very good backdrop for any pictures. Here, the roar of the falling water is deafening. Sprays that burst out when the water hits the foot of the falls form a thick mist at the bottom and spreads far. It seems it is forever raining near the falls and the surrounding area is always wet. So watch your step when you climb up and step over boulders for they are sure to be moss-covered and slippery. Across the stream is an area which is relatively flat and is an ideal place for camping. The stream flows a bit further and then falls over a sloping contour of rock. The flow is not that strong there and the basin below the falls which forms a natural pool is ideal for swimming. Surrounded by thick vegetation, the area is tranquil and a good place to relax and commune with nature. How to get to Can-umantad Falls Can-umantad Falls is located at barrio Can-umantad, Candijay, Bohol, a tourist destination in the Philippine archipelago.

Anda
Other than the famed Chocolate Hills, Bohol has beautiful beaches that are off the beaten path. The Cabandong Beach of Anda is comparable to Boracay's white beach minus the commercialization. And that means peace and quiet with lots of space to run around. Cabandong Beach's sand is pure whit and very fine. No trash can be seen in the area, only coconuts, kelp, pieces of wood, sea grass, and shells washed ashore are the only things that are strewn in the shoreline. The beach is public so you pay nothing to get in. Source:Bol-anon
Candijay
Panadtaran, Candijay, Bohol Another tourist destination is the mangrove forest in barangay Panadtaran, Candijay, Bohol. The forest is a wide 1,472 hectares, 600 hectares of which was awarded by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources to the Panadtaran Mangrove Association or PAMAS in 1999. The group is composed of local residents, mostly fishermen and farmers who organized themselves in 1996. The Candijay mangrove forest is one of the most diverse in the country and boasts of at least 36 species. Some of the mangrove trees are century-old and look gaunt and old. Majority of the trees are of the “bakauan” type (Rhizophora Stylosa) who has arching stilt roots emerging from the trunk. In Greek, Rhizophora Stylosa means “root bearer”. The bakauans generally live in inter-tidal areas which are inundated daily by the tides and have adapted to brackish water conditions and are salt-tolerant. These trees develop into tall trees. The roots hold up the tree in soft mud and help the tree to breathe. With roots emerging from the branches, the tree looks very attractive. Mangrove specie also found along the rivers of Candijay is the nipa palm. It has a horizontal trunk that grows beneath the ground and only the leaves and the flower stalk grows upward above the surface. It cannot be considered a tree, although the leaves can extend up to 9 m (30 ft) in height. The flowers are a globular inflorescence of female flowers at the tip with catkin-like red or yellow male flowers on the lower branches. The flower yields a woody seed, these arranged in a cluster compressed into a ball up to 25 cm (10 in) across on a single stalk. The ripe seeds separate from the ball and are floated away on the tide, occasionally germinating while still water-borne. The thick bakauan mangrove forest has become a bird sanctuary aside from it being a habitat for the fishes and other marine life. The area has become a spawning ground, a nursery, as well as feeding ground and shelter to the hundreds of fish species, crustaceans and invertebrates found in the area. The tangled and intricate root systems provide a safe place for this marine life to grow, away from many predators of the sea. The muddy waters around the mangroves are the main source of food. It is rich in nutrients coming from leaves that fall into the waters, decomposes and is covered by large amounts of small organisms which coats the leaf particles and becomes food.
